What Is Nextcloud?

However, for some businesses, Nextcloud simply isn’t enough. It doesn’t offer all the features you need, doesn’t have the interface you want, and/or doesn’t have the level of security you need in your organization. That’s where custom Nextcloud developers come into play.

Nextcloud is an open source file hosting service, designed to help you store and access the files your company needs to remain productive.

With Nextcloud, you’ll have access to dozens of built-in features to help you keep your files secure and improve your team’s productivity.

For example, you’ll be able to tag files with custom tags, search for files, and even name favorites so you can find them easily. You can also share files between team members and with people from other organizations. Default security features also give you administrative control over your users—all while your data is protected with antivirus scanning and encryption.

With Nextcloud development services, you’ll have the ability to custom design and develop your own Nextcloud features. These could be replacement features, overwriting what Nextcloud already offers, supplementary features to enhance Nextcloud’s core product, or ways to integrate with other products. For example, Nextcloud development can help you get access to:
Search Features

More robust search features

So you can find what you’re looking for faster

Smart Folders

Smart folders

Which allow you to link different documents together, and manage different versions conveniently.
